A Ford Vehicle conveying tomatoes, vegetables and other foodstuffs into Enugu was on Monday morning set ablaze by unknown persons believed to be enforcing the sit-at-home directive of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPoB).
The vehicle was set ablaze at Edem junction Ibeagwa, Nike, Enugu East Local Government Area of Enugu State.
The vehicle was said to be coming from the Ugwogo end of the Opi/Enugu bye-pass when it was blocked and set on fire.
Sympathizers were said to have put a call to the State Fire Service prompting a quick response by the Ogui Road fire service station to the scene.
Leaders of IPOB have severally announced an end to the Monday sit-at-home but some hoodlums have insisted it must continue until Nnamdi Kanu is released.
Violent attack on those disobeying the order has forced residents of most parts of the South East to continue observing the order.
Some residents in Enugu did not observe last Monday’s sit-at-home but shooting at the Garki area of Enugu may have forced residents to retreat and continue with the sit-at-home.
